Hybrid Vehicles
A hybrid is not just a car that combines gas and electricity. A hybrid is a vehicle that utilizes two sources of energy. A moped is an example. The moped uses both gas and a person pedaling. A hybrid uses a sophisticated combination of an electric and a gasoline engine. At low speeds the gas engine shuts off and the electric one has full control. At high speeds the electric engine assists the gasoline one while the gasoline charges the battery. Plug in hybrids are hybrids that have extra battery powers. This means that the gas engine needs to be run less often and the electric one runs the car until 52 miles per hour. You can purchase a used civic plus he convertion for 25000 dollars. this gives you a car that gets 100 miles per gallon. More information at hymotion.com
